(CNN) – The hard-fought Democratic primary race is winding down, but the veepstakes are just starting to heat up. Do voters in the year’s final contests think Barack Obama – just a handful of delegates away from claiming the party’s presidential nomination – should pick rival Hillary Clinton as his running mate?
South Dakota’s Democrats seem to like the idea; according to early exit polls, 55 of them think Clinton should be on the ticket this fall, while 41 percent do not.
But the state’s Obama voters give the idea a thumbs-down: 56 percent say Obama should not offer Clinton the vice presidential slot, versus 40 percent that do.
Montana’s Democratic primary voters are more divided: nearly half, 49 percent, think Clinton should join Obama on a joint ticket – but 45 percent do not.

I laugh at the comment above:
"Clinton/Obama – yes we can
Obama/Clinton – vote McCain"
That represents that you're voting purely out of spite. That's childish and I hope you rethink your priorities, since they obviously aren't aligned with the country. I actually care about the damage a McCain presidency means.
no bad idea. i think john edwards should be the VP.
